1085 Madam Brulee: I Like It

Madam Brulee sat down first. Seeing that Naris was still standing, she looked at the empty chair. “Miss Naris, please sit.”

Na Li wasn’t shy at all and sat down.

After taking a seat, she placed the basket on her lap, lifted the lid, and took out a water ripple oval gla.s.s bottle. The bottle was filled with a faint golden liquid, while a rich and sophisticated fragrance floated out of the wooden bottle stopper.

Madam Brulee’s eyes lit up when she smelled the fragrance.

Peony!

Madam Brulee was obsessed with peony. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have planted peony all over the courtyard.

Naris placed the bottle beside Madam Brulee’s hand. Her att.i.tude was respectful, but she didn’t flatter her. She said, “Madam, three years ago, I was still unknown, but the first piece I concocted was lucky enough to be appreciated by you. Because of your recognition, my reputation as a perfumer gradually spread. To me, Madam is Bo Le. In order to thank you for your kindness, I specifically concocted a new perfume for you.”

“This bottle of perfume is unique in the world.”

After Naris finished speaking, she noticed that Madam Brulee didn’t reach out to take the bottle of perfume.

Naris’ heart raced. She subconsciously crossed her hands and asked nervously, “You don’t like it?”

Hearing Naris’ question, Madam Brulee looked at Naris with a smile and said, “Miss Naris, to be able to concoct this unique peony perfume, you’re so considerate. It can be seen that you’ve done a lot of research on me in order to concoct this perfume.”

She seemed to be smiling, but she was actually conveying her dissatisfaction to Naris by hinting that, ‘In order to please me, you deliberately investigated my preferences. This disgusts me very much.’

Naris was smart, so of course she could hear Madam Brulee’s warning.

Naris didn’t want Madam Brulee to misunderstand.

It was one thing for Madam Brulee to admire her talent in perfume, but if she dared to investigate Madam Brulee because of this, that would be disrespectful.

Naris wasn’t frightened by Madam Brulee. She said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, “I believe you can tell that I was born on Five Lake Street in the south of the Ice River City. In our place, information is relatively closed off, so before today, I didn’t know that your favorite flower was peony flowers.”

Madam Brulee listened without saying anything. It was unknown if she believed Naris or not.

As Naris tried to figure out Madam Brulee’s thoughts, she said, “The outside world says that you love Magnolia the most, but when I saw you on the news a few times, I felt that pink peony suits you more. Perhaps this is my intuition as a perfumer.”

Intuition.

Madam Brulee finally smiled, but it was still very faint. “Oh really? Is that so? Then tell me, how do I look like a peony?”

Naris knew that the next answer was the key to moving Madam Brulee.

She deliberated and said sincerely, “Everyone says that peony flowers are tacky and beautiful, so it has never been liked by scholars and powerhouses. However, there are thousands of flowers in the eyes of a thousand people. How do you know that the vulgar peony in your eyes is not something precious and sophisticated in other people’s eyes? Although Five Lakes Street is closed off, the news of the mayor and his wife’s deep relations.h.i.+p has long spread to every city and street in the Central Continent. Isn’t the wife beloved by the mayor that peony?”

As Naris looked at the bottle of perfume, her gaze suddenly became gentle and envious. She told Madam Brulee, “Madam, it’s called Love. Just like how you are irreplaceable to the mayor.”

Naris had spent her entire life’s worth of flattery here.

When Madam Brulee heard Naris’ flattery, she remained silent for a long time. She stared at Naris with pondering and skepticism.

After a moment, Madam Brulee suddenly smiled.

“Your flattery is a little too much.” It was impossible for Madam Brulee not to see that Naris was deliberately flattering her.

However…

“I like it.” Madam Brulee said something that didn’t match her n.o.ble temperament and status.

Naris was shocked, but she didn’t show it on her face.

“As long as you like it.”

Only then did Madam Brulee open the bottle stopper and take out two drops of perfume with the dropper. Then, she wiped it under her ears and smeared a little on her hair.

Since she was willing to use this perfume, it meant she had accepted the gift from Naris.

Smelling the floral fragrance that lingered in her nose, Madam Brulee said lazily, “I’m just vulgar. I like big peony flowers, just like I like burly men. I like sparkly jewelry and gorgeous dresses. Of course, I also like silly girls like you who suck up to me.”

Upon hearing this, Naris finally felt relieved.

Madam Brulee finally asked, “Tell me, why did you come to see me and bring your friends?”

Naris was delighted.

Since Madam Brulee was willing to take the initiative to ask, she was most likely willing to help.

Naris didn’t dare to hesitate, nor did she dare to beat around the bush with Madam Brulee, so she directly told her why she was there. “My friends want to see the mayor.”

Madam Brulee wasn’t surprised to hear this answer. “I knew it.”

Madam Brulee didn’t ask about the encounter of Naris’ friends in detail, nor did she give Naris an affirmative reply on the spot. Instead, she made a difficult request.

She said, “It’s not easy for a young lady to come to the bustling Nine G.o.ds District, so you should have dressed up beautifully, but you covered yourself up tightly. I guess there must be some secret under your cloak and mask.”

Madam Brulee suddenly leaned towards Naris and lowered her voice. “You can ask me to help you, but you have to exchange your biggest secret with me.” Madam Brulee blinked as she said with a half-hearted smile, “Take off your veil and your cloak. Let me see what your biggest secret is.”

Hearing this, Naris was stunned on the spot.

She didn’t expect Madam Brulee to make things difficult for her.

She had long heard that Madam Brulee was an unpredictable woman. Naris originally hoped that Madam Brulee would be more tolerant of her because she admired her talent.

To be able to make such a difficult request, it could be seen that in Madam Brulee’s eyes, she, Naris, was just an ordinary person.

If it wasn’t for her talent in perfume, she probably wouldn’t have the right to appear in front of Madam Brulee in this lifetime.

When Madam Brulee saw Naris’ stunned and hesitant expression, her expression didn’t change. She smiled faintly as she said, “What? Are you very disappointed in me? Do you think I’m completely different from the Madam Brulee you imagined?”

Naris didn’t dare to answer this question.
